Get creative with background images and semi-opaque shapes

Lucid Synergy's site design benefits from a large but subtle background image. Because Adobe® Muse™ software allows you to set the opacity of an object to anything from 0 to 100, the background color of the site's content area is just slightly transparent, adding visual interest without being distracting. Opacity can also be woven into an object's states, so it changes opacity on hover.

Use PNG images to achieve sophisticated transparency effects

Lucid Synergy makes great use of PNG-24 images, one of the several image formats you can place in Adobe Muse. The images of the bird, lion, and dog on this site use the PNG-24 format so the edges of the animals are beautifully soft and realistic.

Create an image in Adobe Photoshop® or Adobe Fireworks® software and then place it in your Adobe Muse layout. Select the image and right-click, and then choose Edit Original. You can make changes in Photoshop or Fireworks and the changes will be automatically reflected when you return to Adobe Muse.

Easily create button states

Lucid Synergy uses an eye-catching, colorful button to direct users to the central site for their business. When the mouse hovers over the button it turns from bright green to bright lavender in response to your interaction.

Easily incorporate Photoshop buttons like these by using the File > Place Photoshop Button command in Adobe Muse. If your Photoshop file has a layer for each of your states, you can select which layer to use for which state using Adobe Muse.
